+
+What's new in version 1.6.10?
+------------------------------
+The most notable new feature of this version is that it is able to read and
+import documents of our new stable series, LyX 2.0.x. This is for the benefit
+of users who want to stick with LyX 1.6.x for the time being, but still want
+to cooperate with users of the new version. Note that LyX 1.6.10 still
+writes the 1.6 format, so it cannot produce (but only interpret) LyX 2.0's
+new features.
+
+
+What's new in version 1.6.9?
+-----------------------------
+
+We have fixed yet another number of crashes that have been reported to us
+and ironed out many small glitches. Also, some features and additions from
+the forthcoming 2.x series, such as support for CVS revision control and a
+new Swedish localization, have been backported to LyX 1.6.9.
+
+
+What's new in version 1.6.8?
+-----------------------------
+
+LyX 1.6.8 is the result of our ongoing efforts to make our stable version
+even more reliable and stable. We have fixed crashes that have been
+reported to us, ironed out many small glitches, further polished the user
+interface, updated the documentation and added some new layouts.
+
+
+What's new in version 1.6.7?
+-----------------------------
+
+From the list of fixes and improvements, we'd like to highlight
+particularly that this release irons out all known stability problems with
+Qt 4.6. LyX 1.6.7 is our first release that is supposed to run smoothly
+with Qt 4.6, so we urge all distributors who use that version to upgrade
+LyX as well.
+
+
+What's new in version 1.6.6.1?
+------------------------------
+
+The sole purpose of this release is to fix one glitch that was introduced
+by LyX 1.6.6: The spellchecker missed further misspellings after applying
+a correction. This was due to the fix to different bug that had to be
+reverted. In any other respect, this release is identical to Lyx 1.6.6.
+
+
+What's new in version 1.6.6?
+-----------------------------
+
+The release features a long list of fixes and improvements. Yet a number
+of crashes, reported by our users or our automatic stability testing
+program, were fixed. Moreover, LyX was improved in many details. It also
+introduces new features, such as support for the enchant spell checking
+backend and for aspell language varieties (such as old and new German
+spelling in parallel).
+
+
+What's new in version 1.6.5?
+-----------------------------
+
+The release comes with many fixes and improvements. A number of newly
+reported crashes were fixed, new layouts and modules were included and
+some long-standing requests were implemented (e.g., a working LyX
+server on the Windows OS, finally enabling the communication with other
+applications such as JabRef on this platform as well).
+
+
+What's new in version 1.6.4.2?
+-------------------------------
+
+The upgrade fixes recurring pseudo-crashes when running LyX on
+Mac OS X 10.6 (Snow Leopard).
+
+
+What's new in version 1.6.4.1?
+-------------------------------
+
+The only change over release 1.6.4 is the fix of a regression on the Mac,
+which made some dialogs (such as Preferences and About LyX) unaccessible
+via the menu. Other platforms than the Mac were not affected by the issue.
+
+
+What's new in version 1.6.4?
+-------------------------------
+
+This is the fourth maintenance release in the 1.6.x series. This release
+covers, amongst many minor improvements, fixes to some rather severe
+issues, such as:
+
+* A workaround to a nasty problem in recent Qt versions (Qt 4.5.0 up to
+ 4.5.2) that made LyX crash if the document included images that were
+ scaled to certain sizes in the work area.
+* Fixes to problems that might result in the loss of data.
+* Many other stability improvements, thanks to a new debugging script that
+ helped to reveal uncovered critical bugs.
+* Further fixes to the LaTeX importer (tex2lyx) and the conversion of
+ older LyX documents (lyx2lyx).
+
+
+What's new in version 1.6.3?
+-------------------------------
+
+This is the third maintenance release in the 1.6.x series. Besides the usual
+improvements of stability, the highlights of this release are:
+
+* tex2lyx is now able to read files in all latex supported encodings and
+ transform them into the proper unicode-based format introduced in 1.5.0.
+ This paves the way for many other improvements in LaTeX->LyX translation
+* The performance problems when editing a master with child documents have
+ been resolved.
+* LyX 1.6.3 introduces some goodies provided by Qt 4.5 (menu support for
+ fullscreen mode in linux, close button on tabs). Of course these
+ improvements (as well as some Qt-related fixes) only show up if LyX is
+ compiled against Qt 4.5.
+
+
+What's new in version 1.6.2?
+-------------------------------
+
+This is the second maintenance release in the 1.6.x series. The release
+fixes a large number of major and critical bugs that were reported by
+users of LyX 1.6.0 and 1.6.1. Most notably, three bugs that might lead to
+dataloss were detected and resolved. Furthermore, a number of crashes,
+file conversion and LaTeX output problems are fixed. As a bonus, the
+performance of the application has been improved, and the release also
+introduces some new features and user interface improvements.
+
+
+What's new in version 1.6.1?
+-------------------------------
+
+This is the first maintenance release in the brand-new 1.6.x series, and
+as such, it mainly focuses on bug fixes. We have ironed out some major
+problems that slipped into the application in the wake of the new
+features.
+
+
+What's new in version 1.6.0?

+
+What's new in version 1.5.7?
+----------------------------
+
+This is the sixth maintenance release in the 1.5.x cycle and it is
+expected to be the final release in this series, since a new series of
+stable releases has just been introduced by our new major release,
+LyX 1.6.0. Besides the obligatory bug fixes, the main feature of this
+release is the ability to read files created by LyX 1.6.0 (this feature
+requires python 2.3.4 or newer).
+
+
+What's new in version 1.5.6?
+----------------------------
+
+This is the fifth maintenance release in the 1.5.x cycle that has been
+started exactly one year ago. The aim of this release was to make LyX
+even more robust and to solve some long-standing annoyances. Also,
+further translation efforts have been made, and LyX now ships in 23
+languages.
